Hi Mittens, just had to let you know how taking something can easily turn dangerous. I think my bad guys are progressing again because my blood won’t coagulate. I accidentally nicked my fingertip and started bleeding so I wrapped a paper towel around it. They tell you that if your platelets are low or less sticky, it won’t clot. Now I have a quandary, my blood won’t clot but how bad is it. The rule for bleeding from a small cut is this, it takes roughly 5 minutes to coagulate and stop bleeding. If it doesn’t, you have a problem, looks like I have a problem but why? I know my blood is progressing to full blown cancer, to many symptoms are showing. I have the fingertip wrapped tightly with bandaids but how can I tell if I finally progressed into NHL or worse WM. How much damage will it do if it has progressed?

I don’t go to my PCP till September 13th and my next check in with my Oncologist/Hematologist till November 18th. I don’t want to get myself worked up so much that I trigger a fatal heart attack but my blood not wanting to stop bleeding has me scared. My last blood test in May shows my B Cells are messed up, low lymphocytes, immature lymphocytes and platelets with White Cells going up along with neutrophils. What signs should I be on the lookout for if I now have cancer? For some reason, my whole body feels itchy, bones in my rib cage are at a level 8 pain, kidneys are hurting and I may be passing blood. I won’t go to the ER, I’ve been misdiagnosed to many time there. HELP!!! What’s happening to me?
